Fig. 1: DSS-induced colitis phenotype.

From: A temporal classifier predicts histopathology state and parses acute-chronic phasing in inflammatory bowel disease patients

Fig. 1

a–c The evolution of colitis severity as exhibited by body-weight change (a), colon-length (b), and some of the histopathology scores (Wilcox p values) (c). Body weight was measured every day throughout the experiment; colon length and histopathology scores were measured at sacrifice days (5, 12, 17, and 34). Error bars denote one standard deviation across 6–24 mice per group. d Representative photomicrographs of H&E stained distal colon slices. Magnification: ×100. DSS colons show edema (E), severely affected areas of mucosa (M), and marked inflammation with moderate gland loss (arrow).
